One of the reasons I passed on the Tinted Canvas Run: Your Heart Out tank was that the pieces used in the bust were too disjointed. The one I tried on also had a dark portion in between the boobs. I thought it looked kind of odd. (Shown with the Run: For It Crops)

A few more photos of the Stay On Course Tank. I wore mine to spin today. I really liked it. I wore it with my Donna Karan sports bra and the tank covered it fine. It's a tank you just put on and forget about, like a CRB. I didn't have to adjust any straps, tug anything into place, or worry about showing too much cleavage. I wore it with luxtreme crops so it rode up a little bit but since it's on the longer side (compared to a Push UR Limits, for example) it didn't stray too high. If it comes out in some other cool colors or prints I'd definitely consider getting another one.

I'm still in a little shock. My husband bought his first full-priced piece of lulu in a store today. He has a decent amount of lulu but when he buys it for himself he buys it from eBay, often second-hand. He just isn't (or wasn't) into spending a lot on his clothes. (He'd much rather buy himself a new GPS with his discretionary money. I think he's bought himself well over 30 - between handheld units, golf GPSs, car GPSs, and running GPSs - in the years we've been married. I've lost count, but it's a lot.) However, today he opened up the wallet to buy himself a pair of Work to Play Pant IIs. He had been thinking of getting himself some lulu pants but he didn't want pants that feel like pajamas (he uses luon yoga shorts as pjs a lot) or super casual sweat pants. He's the kind of guy who spends 90% of his time in Dockers (I know, such a Dad) when he's not wearing shorts, so when he spotted the Work to Play Pants hanging on the rack they really resonated with him. He had been thinking of getting pants he could wear to work (he works in tech so he can be fairly casual) or wear for golf or a hike. A very nice educator named John at the Irvine store helped him out and happened to be wearing the same pants in the same size. He gave him some good insight into fit and function of the pants. John said he actually taught fitness courses in the pants and that a lot of men wear them for golf.

The fabric they are made out of is interesting. It's Ascent. It's two way stretch and quite a bit thicker than the Swift used in the women's Studio Pants. It felt like it would be very durable. My husband also liked that the waistband fastened with a button rather than a snap since snaps tend to pop open (so he tells me). The pants also have a cool iPhone pocket in one of the front pockets. The crotch also has some venting. The cut is much slimmer than Dockers through the leg, rear, and waist but I've been telling him to get some narrower cut pants for a while now. I really liked how they looked on him. They are at the store being hemmed but I will definitely update you on how he likes them and how they perform. They seem to be selling well on the website and get good reviews so far. (As far as the fit, the waist runs snug and there is no elastic so don't lie to yourself as to what your true waist size is.)

About Me

For 18 years I was an electrical engineer working in communications satellite system engineering. I've worked at Boeing, Booz, Allen & Hamilton, and General Electric. For the past ten years I've been a stay at home mom who keeps busy volunteering in my community and chauffeuring my three children to their activities. I live in Orange County, California.

The inaugural Sea Wheeze inspired me to take up running two years ago. I have completed nine half marathons and have two more scheduled for 2015. I mostly run these days but also go to the gym ~3-4 days a week for spin class, weight lifting, and cardio.

I discovered Lululemon six years ago and really liked the fit and performance of the clothes. I do check out other brands so if you would like me to review your product please contact me.
